Introduction to Enzyme and Coenzyme Chemistry

Professor Timothy Bugg, Department of Chemistry, University of Warwick, UK Professor Bugg is Professor of Biological Chemistry at the University of Warwick. Following his PhD studies with Dr C. Abell at the University of Cambridge he spent two years as a SERC/NATO postdoctoral research fellow in the laboratory of Professor CT Walsh at Harvard Medical School. In 1991 he began his academic career as a lecturer in organic chemistry at the University of Southampton, before moving to Warwick in 1999. His research interests are in the study of enzyme mechanisms, principally enzymes involved in the bacterial degradation of aromatic compounds, and enzymes involved in bacterial peptidoglycan biosynthesis. He has published approximately 100 journal publications since 1988, is the author of "An Introduction to Enzyme and Coenzyme Chemistry" (2 editions), and a contributor to "Comprehensive Natural Products Chemistry", and "Encyclopaedia of Chemical Biology" (for which he is on the Advisory Board).
